So do you guys not think Chris Rock is enough of a link for Dwayne Hickman to become Dwayne Johnson?

Can't believe I came that close without getting it.
I think Chris Rock more probably goes with Chris Johnson, who broke Marshall Faulk's rushing record.

Also, Richard Mulligan is best known for his role on Soap, as was Jay Johnson.

How about Stone Cold Steve Austin, then, as the answer to the one unresolved clue? I see plenty of pics of him with both middle fingers extended. Was that his "salute?" He certainly would go with The Rock.

Since John Hillerman connects directly to the theme, he's on here for his character in Blazing Saddles, Howard Johnson.

#9 GERTrUDE Berg + #59 Nellie Melba = Gertrude Johnson, an Australian soprano whose career was mentored by Nellie Melba

Russell Johnson did appear in 2 episodes of Twilight Zone, so maybe Rod Serling"s the match?

17. KIRK CAMERON + 49. ASHLEY JUDD = Ashley Johnson (Chrissy Seaver in Growing Pains)

I am thinking that Beverly D'Angelo becomes the famous model Beverly Johnson but I can't find a matching name

Updated consolidation:
Identify the 88 people below. Form 50 pairs based on a Tangredi, or hidden principle, that you must discover for yourself. Twelve names will be used twice, each in a different capacity.

Duh! As a TZ fan, I should have gotten this one earlier!

32. GEORGE EASTMAN + 72. ROD SERLING = GEORGE (CLAYTON) JOHNSON

George Clayton Johnson wrote some of the best episodes of TZ, including A Game of Pool, Kick the Can, and Nothing in the Dark.

So Russell Johnson is definitely NOT matched with Serling.

I don't know if I like it, but Aaron Kaufman fits alphabetically for the one unsolved clue left, and Aaron Johnson co-starred with Anne-Marie Duff in the John Lennon biopic she did.

Aaron Kaufman is one of the stars of the reality show Fast And Loud on the Discovery Channel.

He doesn't fit alphabetically, because the last name has to be between FRYE and GRAHAM, but I bet we are looking for an Aaron.

This one is again from research. I think we're at the point we can do that.

17. KIRK CAMERON + 51. VITALI KLITCHKO = KIRK JOHNSON

Klitchko boxed against Johnson.

I didn't mention it before, lest I give away the theme, but Alex Johnson passed away on February 28, shortly after we began this game. So "The Curse" has stricken this game, too.

I forgot to mention that all of the completed pairs are correct. Two of the partials are correct, and Mr. K just found the correct Russell Johnson match... so either Darrell Johnson or Beverly Johnson will not allow you to complete the game.

The one not used has to be Darrell. Darrell was on the list before when you said there was one wrong, Beverly wasn't.

Can our missing person be a Brad?

Brad Johnson was Lofty Craig in the TV show Annie Oakley. We just saw him in one of those Antenna TV/ME TV/Cozi reruns (Wagon Train, Rin Tin Tin, one of them).

Also, Bob Barr gives us Indian Bob Johnson, who was a standout ballplayer (and someone who a fan like Fireball would know) but, unlike Alex Johnson and Yaz, I don't see a match for him, so it's probably wrong.

Bingo! Alphabetically, I noticed Brad Garrett fits that spot. And when I googled "Brad Garrett" and "disco" together, it took me to the album Discovery by ELO. According to Wikipedia, "Disco very" was a 'well known nickname' for the album. Also, "In one of his earliest jobs, comedian/actor Brad Garrett, dressed in middle eastern clothes and turban, appears on the back cover as the menacing palace guard who is drawing his scimitar."

It took a while to get to Brad Garrett, but I knew you would get there eventually.
